Star Trek: Prodigy season 2 debuts with a 100% Fresh score on Rotten Tomatoes, outpacing even recent and popular seasons of Star Trek: Picard, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, and Star Trek: Discovery. Star Trek: Prodigy season 2 premiered on July 1st, with all 20 brand-new episodes releasing on Netflix that same day. Fan reaction online has been stellar, with viewers praising Star Trek: Prodigy season 2’s sweeping story of universal stakes, richly-drawn characters, and ingenious connections to Star Trek lore.

Star Trek: Prodigy season 2’s perfect Rotten Tomatoes score of 100% Fresh exceeds Star Trek: Picard season 3’s 97% Fresh rating, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds season 2’s 97% Fresh rating, and even Star Trek: Strange New Worlds season 1’s 99% Fresh rating. Star Trek: Prodigy season 2 easily beat out Star Trek: Discovery season 5’s 80% Fresh rating for its final season. Interestingly, Star Trek: Lower Decks season 4 also garnered a 100% Fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes, but Star Trek: Prodigy season 2’s 96% audience score blows away its fellow Star Trek series’ audience scores.

Netflix Picking Up Star Trek: Prodigy Was A Smart Move

The next smart move by Netflix would be greenlighting Prodigy season 3

Along with Star Trek: Prodigy season 2 achieving a 100% Fresh Rotten Tomatoes score, the animated series landed in Netflix’s top 10 around the world, in countries such as Germany, France, Switzerland, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom. It certainly appears Netflix made a wise decision by picking up Star Trek: Prodigy following the beloved show’s abrupt cancelation by Paramount+. The rabid fan campaign that helped save Star Trek: Prodigy is doing its part by binging season 2 all over the world.

Netflix would make another wise decision by greenlighting Star Trek: Prodigy season 3. Of course, Star Trek: Prodigy season 2 must meet the streamer’s internal metrics of success in order to get a renewal, but Star Trek: Prodigy is getting some of the most positive reactions for a Star Trek series since the franchise relaunched in the streaming era with Star Trek: Discovery. It’s clear from how Star Trek: Prodigy season 2 ends that there is much more story to tell, and hopefully Star Trek: Prodigy will fly on Netflix for more seasons to come.
